    Federal own Alliant so probably cut Re26 off to Hornady (7PRC) knowing this was coming out, mines faster than yours! No way I’d pull the trigger on a savage at 80kpsi! :D I’d want a high quality...

    I remember reading somewhere that 80 percent of shooters use 20 percent of a cartridges potential. Which reminds me of the old saying beware of the man with one gun, he knows how to use it.

    Fair one. Though speaking with a gunsmith, the number of Tikkas with setback on those lugs from hot reloads suggests that they aren't as reassuringly over-engineered for those cartridges as you'd...

    High pressure steel case shooting up to a 195gr bullet. 3300fps-3000fps depending on weight and it’s a 20” barrel. It’s going to flop and take away from production of popular cartridges that are hard...

    caberslash liked post by Sidetrack On thread : Super light thinking
    Balance accounts for a lot. On the 6.5grendal in the Elude chassis and 12.5” barrel, I used the suppressor as a balance weight, removing and adding baffles till I was happy with it slightly weighted...

    Yup balance is a critical factor alright, and I suppose harder to adjust in a super light weight as the margins are very small.

    It has a GPO 4-16 on it now and it suits the rifle. Shoots very well, as Savages do, likes the Belmont 55gr which is lucky because I have a bit of it. The stock is great to shoot with, I like the...

    Always be aware that retailers will only try to sell you what they have on the racks/shelf, rather than what's the optimum for fit and purpose . . .
